When a child goes to school, a nation grows
LYRECO FOR EDUCATION RESIZED

12,000 employees supporting better access to education

Since its creation in 2008, the vision of Lyreco for Education has been to develop education where it is needed most in the world. Year after year and project after project, this programme has been part of our Lyreco company culture.

Through Lyreco for Education, we focus our Lyreco people commitment and goodwill on participating in fund raising actions across our countries. This is how we have raised more than 4 million € together over the last 15 years. Our aim is to promote a better access to education for children around the world.

We have completed projects to improve the quality and equality of education in Bangladesh, Vietnam, Brazil, Togo, Madagascar and Cambodia. Since 2023 and over the next three years, we are developing a new project to help 10 schools in Ethiopia.
